why is the tetris clone that's part of gnome-games so awful

@noiob I'm fairly certain you know the answer to that question already. :blobnervous2:

@Jo not really? I feel like the intersection between nerds who write foss games and nerds who know how a good tetris plays must be pretty large?

@noiob Honestly, most of those games tend to be doing it for the sake of cloning it and going "SEE?? FREE ALTERNATIVE!!" , without any kind of love actually going into it.

@Jo pretty sure most of them are babby's first GTK3 project/ GTK3 demos

@noiob once again, KDE reigns surpreme (actually kblocks also isn't all that good)

@halcy I'm not gonna install it on my work machine but you can't really get any worse than Quadrapassel, it's way too wide and doesn't have kicks
